Bug 407 – casting array literals to int causes compiler seg-fault

The following code demonstrates in which cases the compiler crashes with a segmentation fault: int i; char[1] c = ['0']; i = c[0]; // ok i = *cast(int*)c; // ok //i = *cast(int*)['0']; // compiler seg-fault //i = *cast(int*)cast(char[0])[]; // compiler seg-fault //i = *cast(int*)cast(char[1])['0']; // compiler seg-fault i = *cast(int*)cast(char[1])"0"; // ok i = *cast(int*)cast(char[3])['0']; // ok i = *cast(int*)cast(char[3])['0', '0']; // ok //i = *cast(int*)cast(char[3])['0', '0', '0']; // compiler seg-fault i = *cast(int*)cast(char[4])['0', '0', '0']; // ok //i = *cast(int*)cast(char[4])['0', '0', '0', '0']; // compiler seg-fault i = *cast(int*)cast(char[])['0','0','0']; // ok PS.: This is my first bug report here and I hope it's useful. I really feel a lot enthusiastic about D, and wish it to become more widely used. Thank you very much, Mr Bright, for putting time and effort into creating a very remarkable language!
